Battery

Cisco Cius uses a removable battery. The first time that you use Cisco Cius, you must charge the battery for a minimum of 5 hours to ensure battery longevity. You can use Cisco Cius while it is charging.

When your Cius is powered down and connected to a charging device, the Home key LED indicates whether the Cius has enough charge to boot. If the LED is white, the battery is charging but does not have sufficient charge to boot. If the LED is red, the battery is charging and there is sufficient charge to boot. After the Cius has booted, battery charge status is indicated only on the notification bar.
